Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Fiscal Responsibility Bill.
Fiscal Responsibility Bill
It is wonderful that one Labour Back Bencher does have the time to talk about the odd £100 billion in cuts that are the subject of this Bill. As one who has done some work on this issue, I can tell the House that I simply applied company accounting principles, laid down by the Government, to the state's accounts. Why should they not apply to the country's accounts as much as to the companies that are made to follow them?
